Dwell
Time in status, cycle & lead time — computed in-tenant, with median & p85

What it does
Dwell measures how long each Jira issue spends in each workflow status, and reports cycle time and lead time from that history. Every calculation runs inside your Atlassian tenant.
Features
- Per-status time and transition counts on every issue
- Project report over any JQL — average, median, p85 and total
- Cycle-time trend by week, so you can see whether flow is speeding up
- Aging work in progress — open issues already past your p85, flagged before they stall
- Flow efficiency — the share of time actively worked versus waiting in a queue
- Time between any two statuses, with median, p85 and the distribution
- Blocked time — how long issues sit flagged, and which are stuck longest
- Group cycle time by assignee, priority, type or status
- Cycle-time histogram, plus a dashboard gadget for any saved JQL
- CSV export, ready for Excel
- Reports resolve as the viewing user, so issue-level security always holds

What it does not do
Worth knowing before you install, not after.
- No working-hours calendar. Every duration is wall-clock, so an issue that sits in review over a weekend counts the weekend.
- Not a time-tracking tool. Dwell reads the changelog Jira already keeps — nobody has to log anything for it to work.
Where your data goes
It reads only what these scopes allow:
| Scope | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
read:jira-work | Read your Jira issues and their change history — to compute time in status, cycle time and lead time. |
read:jira-user | Read user display names — to populate the assignee filter with readable names. |
storage:app | Store the computed index and your app settings. |
